Professional Growing Information I was gifted five Sweet Romance Lavendar for Christmas. Two planted in my back yard did not survive. However and to my great happiness three planted in my front yard have grown tremendously. I have cut back the beautiful Lavendar in June and they need another cutback! Absolutely love these Lavendar! Will be purchasing more to try again in back yard. Highly recommend Sweet Romance Lavender!

Gardeners around the world have been growing lavender for centuries for its intensely fragrant flowers, beautiful appearance, and ease of culture.
Along comes SWEET ROMANCE™, destined to become a favorite because of its ability to bloom the first year. Additionally, it begins to flower a bit earlier in the season, typically in early summer and lasting into early fall.
The grey-green foliage forms a compact mound topped with plump, rich violet purple flower wands that are perfect for cutting for fresh and dried bouquets. Clusters of tiny flowers appear at the nodes up the stem in addition to the terminal inflorescence, adding color down into the plant.

These were an utter failure. I ordered a dozen plants, which arrived promptly and seemed in good shape. They were planted, under all the right growing conditions, within two days of receipt. Within a couple weeks, they began to turn brown and looked like they were dying. I trimmed the dead flowers and only half of them look like they may have life. Very disappointed with this plant and got no help from PW.

I am very disappointed with this purchase. 5 out of the 6 Sweet Romance Lavender plants I planted last year died, and did not return this year.

I ought six 3 years ago. 4 died the first year and the other two died last year. Zone 5 and poor soil.! I had such high hopes.

Gorgeous and bloomed twice this season. With proper pruning I expect this plant could bloom multiple times over each season. Definitely a winner!

I picked up nearly 30 of these on clearance at a local nursery. Despite being planted in the middle of a dearth on a hill, they all made it and continued to bloom well into the Fall. I had a hard time deciding when to prune it back because my honeybees were still sourcing the blooms! This a is wow plant! So pleasant smelling, easy to care for - all of which makes it "sweet."

I love Sweet Romance Lavender! Im a novice and its so easy to grow. The flowers last a long time (its the middle of October and the plants are still in bloom!) and the smell is wonderful. I am purchasing more as its a winner!
